Xie Dinghua used a set of words of praise, randomly changed a few words and applied it to two people, and he did so in front of two people.
However, instead of being angry, Li Xian had a flattering smile on his face: "Uncle Xie, I cannot deserve your compliment."
"What I tell you is true. You are a stranger at a young age, and your future is limitless."
Xie Dinghua laughed, but Lin Ye interjected from the side: "Li Xian is indeed very good. Brother Li told me at the time that the most proud thing in his life was giving birth to Li Xian. As his son, Li Xian gave him a good reputation.
.”
"That's true. If I had a son like this, I would be proud of him." Xie Dinghua continued what Lin Ye said.
In fact, Xie Dinghua was a little confused in his heart. He was just complimenting him out of politeness. Why did Mr. Lin accept it? Mr. Lin couldn't come to the Xie family just to show off that the Li family had produced a good offspring.
The next generation of the Xie family has four strangers, and there is nothing to envy the Li family.
"You don't have to be a son to be proud of." As soon as Lin Ye said these words, Xie Dinghua and Lu He both looked at Lin Ye with somewhat puzzled expressions, but Lin Ye did not explain, but changed the subject and said: "Can't
I kept the old lady waiting for too long, so go and greet the old lady first."
"Yes, yes, my mother is already waiting in the main hall, Mr. Lin please."
Xie Dinghua also reacted and led the way. Li Xian glanced at Lin Ye with gratitude in his eyes. Lin Ye smiled slightly and walked forward.
The reason why he would exchange these few words with Xie Dinghua is very simple. Li Xian's girlfriend is Xie Xiaoqi, Xie Dinghua's daughter, and Xie Dinghua is Li Xian's future father-in-law.
Guide Xie Dinghua to praise Li Xian, so that when he expresses his intention, Xie Dinghua will not be able to object. As for whether Xie Dinghua will glare at Li Xian, his son-in-law, because of this matter, that is none of his business.
.
Entering the hall, Lin Ye met Mrs. Xie, the head of the Xie family.
The old lady was sitting on the throne, with a dignified face and an air of majesty all over her body.
Lin Ye read the information about Mrs. Xie from the laboratory. At that time, she was the only stranger in the Xie family's generation, and she was also a woman. The Xie family was almost on the verge of falling apart.
In order to stabilize the Xie family and make the Xie family members convinced of her, Old Mrs.
"Mom, Mr. Lin is here."
Xie Dinghua, who was still smiling before, now behaved very well when he entered the hall. This also verified the laboratory's analysis of Mr. Xie.
"At the end of my studies, I went to Lin Ye and met the old lady."
Lin Ye cupped his fists and saluted. The old lady smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, you're welcome. Please sit down quickly."
After asking Lin Ye to take a seat first, Mrs. Xie looked at Lu He again: "Mr. Lu and my Xie family are also acquaintances, so there is no need for so much red tape."
"The old lady is a senior, etiquette must not be broken." Lu He also hugged the old lady Xie and then sat down on the seat below Lin Ye.
The only person still standing in the hall was Li Xian.
"What should I call this young hero?" Mrs. Xie looked at Li Xian and asked with a smile.
"Junior Li Xian of the Li family has met Mrs. Xie." Li Xian bowed respectfully.
"The Li family, is it the Li family in Daci Town? Don't you know Li Zhenhai and you?"
"Back to the old lady, that's my grandpa. Before I came, grandpa also asked me to say hello to you."
"You are Li Zhenhai's grandson. Yes, your Li family also has a successor."
Mrs. Xie had a smile on her face, and a look of hesitation flashed across Li Xian's face, but after a while his expression became firm and he said: "Mr. Xie, this time I came to the Li family to propose marriage to the Xie family.
"
Mrs. Xie's smile did not change at Li Xian's words, but Xie Dinghua's heart suddenly trembled. Thinking of Mr. Lin exaggerating Li Xian's words in front of him outside the door, he suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart.
premonition.
"When I was in college, I was in the same class as Xiaoqi. After several contacts, I fell in love with Xiaoqi. When I found out that Qi was the granddaughter of the old lady, I reported it back to my elders in the family, who scolded me.
Out of whim, the toad wanted to eat the swan meat, but in the end, grandpa took pity on him and allowed me to come to Xie's house..."
Listening to Li Xian's words, Lin Ye felt emotional in his heart. He was worthy of being a member of a big family, and the words sounded nice.
Li Xian did not mention the love relationship between him and Xie Xiaoqi, but only said that he admired Xie Xiaoqi, and the elders in the family scolded him for wanting to eat swan meat, but they could not make him change his mind. In the end, he had no choice but to let himself
Come to Xie's house and leave the decision-making power to Xie's family.
These words not only preserved Xie Xiaoqi's reputation as a woman of innocence, but also flattered the Xie family, but the Xie family could definitely guess the truth behind it.
If Xie Xiaoqi and Li Xian were just ordinary classmates, Li Xian would not know Xie Xiaoqi's identity, and if Li Xian dared to come to the door, it must be a girl who has already established a relationship.
"This boy is very clear about important matters. If I were Mrs. Xie, I wouldn't refuse this marriage."
Lin Ye was about to open his mouth to help, but when he saw Old Mrs. Xie's expression, his eyes narrowed slightly. Something was wrong with the way things were going.
The smile on Mrs. Xie's face disappeared, and was even replaced by a rather embarrassed look. Although this embarrassed look only appeared for a moment, he still caught it.
This discovery made him stop rushing to talk. In fact, Li Xian's words, plus the fact that he brought Li Xian to the Xie family, the Xie family should know the purpose of his coming here.
I am here to act as a matchmaker for Li Xian.
"Please take your seat first."
Li Xian raised his head and looked at Mrs. Xie without moving his steps.
"Ahem, Nephew Li Xian, this is your fault. I know that Xiaoqi is the old lady's favorite granddaughter and the apple of Brother Dinghua's eye. If you had made a sudden attack, if it had been me,
I’m afraid my heart can’t bear it, so come over and sit down.”
It was Lu He who spoke. He felt that the atmosphere in the hall was a little awkward. His words were meant to help Li Xian.
"Uncle Lu is saying that this junior is being reckless."
Li Xian apologized and sat under Lu He, but his eyes never left Mrs. Xie.
Mrs. Xie was silent. The reason for her silence was that she was in a bit of a dilemma at the moment.
If Li Xian is interested in one of her other granddaughters, no matter which one they are, with Mr. Lin's willingness to be a matchmaker and Li Xian's own talent and background, she would be willing to have such a grandson-in-law.
But Xiaoqi's situation is different.
"Li Xian, it's Xiaoqi's blessing that you fall in love with Xiaoqi. It's just that Xiaoqi has been engaged since she was a child."
In the end, Mrs. Xie made a decision. Although rejecting Li Xian would offend Mr. Lin and the Li family, it would not make them enemies. But if Li Xian was chosen, the Xie family would be offended.
Cruel.
The Xie family couldn't bear the anger over there, and the Li family couldn't bear it. As for Mr. Lin's words, she was not sure because she had never seen Mr. Lin take action, and Mr. Lin's deeds were also done over there.
get.
What's more, Mr. Lin is just a matchmaker, and he doesn't necessarily have a close relationship with the Li family. The Li family may have paid a certain price to hire Mr. Lin. It's hard to say whether Mr. Lin will intervene in subsequent matters.
"Old lady..."
Li Xian was a little anxious and didn't care about being polite. Xiaoqi had been engaged since she was a child. How come he had never heard about this from Xiaoqi?
Xie Dinghua also looked at his mother in shock. As a father, he had never heard of his daughter's engagement.
Could it be that the mother made such an excuse to reject Li Xiancai?
But it shouldn't be, this kind of excuse can be easily exposed.
"Not many people in the clan know about this matter. I arranged it for Xiaoqi after she was born. Even Dinghua didn't know about it. He originally waited for Xiaoqi to graduate before telling Xiaoqi.
"
Mrs. Xie explained, Lin Ye thought about it for a while, and finally confirmed that Mrs. Xie was telling the truth.
Because Mrs. Xie can have many reasons for refusing, but this reason is the easiest to be exposed.
The Xie family is not an ordinary family. Even if Xie Xiaoqi does not marry Li Xian, she will marry someone in the future. Then she cannot hide who the other party is, so she can know whether she has arranged a baby kiss.
Once exposed, Mrs. Xie would have severely offended the Li family and herself.
However, Lin Ye figured it out, and Lu He also figured out the joints, but Li Xian failed to figure it out. He was the person involved, and he couldn't sit still when he heard Old Mrs. Xie's words.
"Old lady, Xiaoqi and I truly love each other..."
At this time, Li Xian no longer cared about the explanations of his family elders or anything else, so he had to tell the truth.
"Enough!"
Mrs. Xie directly interrupted Li Xian's words. It was related to her granddaughter's reputation, especially if this matter spread over there, it would bring unnecessary trouble to the Xie family.
"Li Xian, you should know what kind of family my Xie family is. Now that we have made a baby wedding, we will definitely not cancel it. Don't mention it again."
After saying that, Mrs. Xie's tone became tactful: "With your conditions, you can find a better girl in the future."
If it was just Li Xian himself, Mrs. Xie could force Li Xian to give up, and even force Li Xian not to tell the story about Xiaoqi after leaving the Xie family. But with Lin Ye and Lu He present, Mrs. Xie could
I had to persuade.
"Grandma, I will not agree to kiss the baby. I have my own choice."
However, just when Mrs. Xie was about to persuade Li Xian to stop, a beautiful figure walked in the door and looked directly at Mrs. Xie.
"Xiaoqi, why are you talking to grandma?"
When Xie Dinghua saw his daughter contradicting her mother, he quickly scolded her.
"Dad, if grandma had told me a long time ago that there is an engagement for me, I might be able to accept it, but now that I am in love with Li Xian, if grandma tells me again, I can't accept it."
Lin Ye looked at Xie Xiaoqi. This girl has a very straightforward temperament. Not to mention, she is a good match for Li Xian.
Li Xian has a softer temperament, and the softness and strength complement each other very well.
"Damn it, grandma loves you too much and makes you lose all your dignity."
Old Mrs. Xie did not expect that her granddaughter would appear at this time and dare to contradict herself. She has always been consistent in her words in the Xie family, and no one has ever dared to contradict her.
"Dinghua, take your daughter down and discipline her well. Don't embarrass our Xie family in front of outsiders."
"Grandma, I won't leave!"
Xie Xiaoqi was very determined and ignored the wink given to her by Xie Dinghua. She even walked up to Li Xian and took Li Xian's hand.
"Okay, okay, my wings are really strong, I feel like I can fly."
Mrs. Xie's skinny palms slapped heavily on the armrest of the chair, and she stood up from the chair. Lin Ye, who was sitting on the right side, smiled and said at this time:
